Chemical Treatment Options

Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals are easily detected by termites / white ants, making them excellent for providing protection around treated areas. However, if the treated areas are not fully covered, or if they are later compromised, termites can detect these breaks and access the building.

The often commonly used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non-Repelling Chemicals

These chemicals aren’t sensed by termites, and so the termites don’t avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and may also pass the chemical on to other colony members, thus causing a compounding result.

Because termites cannot tell the difference between treated locations to non-treated areas, the potential for termite access through non-treated gaps is lower.

The most frequently used non repellent chemical is Fipronil which has a residual life span of up to 8 years.

Baiting Systems For Termites

Through use of an Above Ground System, termites can be eliminated from the house by positioning bait stations directly on white ant activity, and encouraging the pests to consume the bait matrix rather than the timber they are eating. This kills those termites that eat the bait, and in addition there is a compounding effect when worker termites return to the nest and feed that bait to fellow nest members.

Ongoing monitoring and assessment allows the bait stations to be re-baited, added to or moved, based on observed termite activity. In this fashion, the entire colony can be sradicated even if its location isn’t known.

In Ground Systems are utilised in a similar manner, however they are often positioned throughout properties where there is currently no obvious activity, to help in early discivery of white ants. These systems are particularly useful when the layout of a house makes it tricky to install adequate perimeter barriers, because it is then possible to identify and intercept white ants before they breach the perimeter.
